This is a great perspective on it, thank you! I'll be sending this around to a few folks
I have a personal theory that we enter into a "crisis" of some sort roughly every 5 years. Essentially 1-2 years of definition/growth/change, 2 years-ish of normalcy post change, 1-2 years of redefinition as things…
I think there's a clear case for limiting the tactics currently employed by social media. They are using a clear strategy and deploying it to millions/billions through the use of algos. There are multiple ways to attack…
This, in my opinion, overlays very well with doom scrolling partisan entertainment on facebook/instagram. No one enjoys it, but the intensity drives them back.
There's nothing wrong with this. I'm glad they're doing it. I've seen too many people go feral and insane over misinformation. Good riddance.
They drew guns on her and her kids. I'd say we should be outraged, but we're awash in outrage because the rule of law has become a one sided bludgeoning instrument for the government to suppress dissent. I can't wait to…
What a stark contrast to America. A country of "Personal freedom" that utterly entraps you to work and shames you as a socialist for asking for support from your government. Ironically, the cut throat work environment…
This right here was such an infuriating discovery for me. Math never made sense to me until I had a kindly old teacher who insisted she watch me write out every step of a problem (in community college). She pointed out…
Abandon this thread, all ye who enter.
+ With (exceptionally) long term, positive effects when coupled with therapy before, during, and after strong psychedelic trips. Ultimately, the research results (and anecdotal evidence) for psilocybin are too great to…
1,400 acres none the less. The ACLU is right to sue, this seems absurd.
I feel like that's fishing for quarters in a sewage tank now.
Please stop posting these links. They're nonsense conspiracy theories filtered through a thesaurus. There is little to no citation, and that which is cited is often dubious in nature or just wrong.
wow, I feel like "Smashed a hole" isn't quite doing that carnage justice. Good luck to them on the repairs :(
>Assad, Putin, Lukashenko, Modi, Bolsonaro, Duterte, Trump...they all use pseudo-legalistic justifications for authoritarian action
1. There are only bad options on the table because there is no coordination at the federal level. Just denial. 2. There is no other option. You quarantine, or you don't. It's a binary thing. If you don't quarantine, you…

This was my main regret of getting a pixel 4 and it still bothers me to this day. I was definitely more satisfied with my 3 :(

I can't help but feel that zuckerberg has unduly influenced the president to ban tiktok in order for them to further corner the social media market. This feels wrong.
Well said.
The post office has been unduly laden with nonsense financial restrictions by the GOP in two presidencies now (Bush and Trump). Put another way, they've purposefully sabotaged one of the oldest institutions in America…
The market can be effective, and it can be especially effective for people with money. However, it should be noted that some people, possibly even MANY people...do not have money or have limited money that must be…
